Loves Me Like a Rock

More from this week's show: www.livefromhere.org/shows/20...

[@fromchomleystreet]

Just to be clear, this is a collaboration between the guy that half the world’s elite musicians would describe as potentially the world’s best musician, and the guy that that guy literally described as “potentially the world’s best musician”.

[@niseylee2217]

Wow!

[@reggieasplund9081]

Two of the best musicians on the planet on stage for public radio. For everything that is good in this world, please find funding to bring this show back.

[@fromchomleystreet]

I just searched for “Jacob Collier Chris Thile”. I had no idea that ever even met each other, let alone collaborated. but I was hoping. This is like stumbling across footage of that one time Hendrix jammed with Paganini.

[@aileenw.9391]

Sammeeeee

[@jaykoblz1]

That's exactly what I did, too

[@damiansanchez1706]

...... that is exactly what I searched!!!!

[@baboothewonderspam]

Me toooo!!! Hahaha!!

[@althenimble]

Me 5!

[@mikehelton697]

Chris Thile: "what if we played all 17.5 hours of freebird?" Me: *clears schedule*

[@Zacharysandilands]

Only just realised Shaun martin (snarky puppy) casually chillin on the organ in the back. 1:40

[@onlyrick]

Started out just clever, turned MAGICAL!

[@lev3k]

Oh hell yeah, the encore! I'm so glad everyone can experience this.

[@nsiepmann]

Well I've been waiting to hear this jam happen since I first heard Jacob Collier :D

[@nsiepmann]

Oh, and as I'm pretty sure I've done roughly once a month for the last year, I just need to shout about TED FREAKING POOR, mild-mannered agent of groove.

[@mac8697]

@@nsiepmann not to be a millenial but, like, BIG MOOD

[@baldviking3]

There used to be a live version of "Ocean Wide, Canyon Deep" by Jacob on this channel. I really loved it. Enjoyed it more than the studio version. I don't get why it got removed

[@WeAreNotAmused]

No doubt it's NPR. And they aren't selling this music as intellectual property

[@EnvelopeGenerator]

everybody on stage reacting to that noise at 1:22

[@mattlewis4972]

Came here looking for a faithful Simon cover...got something completely different. Well, they flipped this song completely on its head, and I don't regret stopping by one bit. Thank you!

[@benjaminclaessens5487]

this might be the best video ever recorded

[@FR-ph]

no words for this.

[@DavesCoverSongs]

What did I just experience? Wow

[@WeAreNotAmused]

Thile is unarguably the best mandolin picker hands down. He can pick as many notes as all the guitar pickers in Nashville TN y'all

[@fwungy4285]

They should call this band the Child Prodigy Club.

[@JesseBlueEads]

Jacob real lowkey at 4:15

[@ryanjohnson1590]

Yea. It was like bruh... We know. You gotta be out here blowin dog whistles/flexin for all the bop and modern jazz cats stopping by....

[@JesseBlueEads]

@@ryanjohnson1590 nah I thought that was a great touch

[@nygaardstudios]

!!! And Shaun Martin's back there, too?!?!?!

[@PlayerGuitar251]

The good drummer....

[@on_certainty]

hilarious

[@WeAreNotAmused]

Dynamic syncopated Segway into the song proper very. Jazz of the musicians who are here

[@noragarza8628]

Paul Simon's original version, Mama Loves me like a Rock!

[@WeAreNotAmused]

Taking it to the street

[@compass4853]

I think he meant Whipping Post.

[@TheEmily63]

is that matteo lane off in the wings?

[@steverothsteinmo]

Why does percussion sound like a slamming door?

[@WeAreNotAmused]

I love Chris thile and his picking but I don't care to listen to him talk for extended time. When he is whisper-talking

[@sonortubelug3853]

Who's the drummer?

[@joefiala6393]

Ted Poor

[@tihomir7]

I wish at least the bass player should know the song
